Cheishvili's match data from the Rugby World Cup tells the story of a lock defined by his work-rate on the defensive side, averaging 10 tackles per game across his four appearances. His carrying numbers are modest, suggesting his primary value to Georgia comes from stopping ball-carriers rather than generating momentum with the ball in hand. When he does carry, he is capable of making a physical impact, with his best single-game output of 5 carries for 10 metres indicating a player who chooses his moments deliberately.
